Maybe I cometely missed the tone in the post referenced. I genuinely thought OP was sarcastically explaining the origin of acceptance of extremism in US religion. Loss of context in the limited medium of text.

Make no mistake - these people are fucked in the head, should be tried (the right to a speedy trial should have been applied years ago), and when (hopefully) convicted, should get absolutely nuked from orbit.

Anyone's claim to practice religion (which doesn't include child abuse, human abuse, animal abuse, or fucking murder) or to not is their business - until they force that with harm on another. (with the understanding that parents brainwashing their kids is currently acceptable, and my biases are my own). Kind of a: "your right to swing your fist ends where my face begins" thing.

So, to summarize: while I don't necessarily agree with prison violence and 'eye-for-an-eye' justice, these people can get fucked with a rake. And my heart weeps for that dear child.
